The First Sign

Offaiiing health, whether in the form OF
Night sweats and Nervousness, or in q
sense Of General WEAKNESS and Loss OF
Appetite, should suggest the use OF
Ayers Sarsaparilla. This preparation
is most effective for giving tone and
strength to the enfeebled system, pro-
noting the digestion and assimilation OF
food, restoring the nervous forces to
their normal condition, and for purify
ing, enriching, and vitalizing the blood.

PRIESTS UNTO GOD.

There IS silent ministry
That knows no rite of book or bell;
That eyes divine alone can see
And heavens own language only tell
It has no affairs and no fame,
:, No waiting crowd, no tuneful choir;
1t serves from beds Of speeches. pain,
From lips that anguish brands with fire.
From homes of want and loss, and woe,
Its worship rises up to Him
Who hears those accents faint and low,
through the loud praise of cherubim.
The dauntless heart the patient soul,
Ihat faces llfe'S severest stress
With smiling front and stern control,
Intent its suffering kin to bless;
The meek who gather every hour
From brler and thorn and wayside tree,
Their largesse scant of fruit or flower,
The harvest of humility;
The tempered will that bows to God,
And knows Him good though tempest lower,
That owns the judgement of His rod
Are but the hidings of his power;
That sings the sun behind the cloud,
Intent to labor, pray and wait.
Whatever winds blow low or loud,
Sure Of the laborer soon or late.
Like the small blossoms by the way,
Enduring cold, enjoying sun,
In rain, or snow, Or sprnkling spray
Cheerful till all their life is done
Dear, homely ministers of love,
Used and forgot, like light and air.
All, when we reach that life above
They will be stately seraphs therel

Sunday Thoughts.

Man is not yet ripe for paradise of
innocence, and for the enjoyment OF
perfect and faultless society.
Amidst the great company of pill
grims who are journeying through life,
many there are whose journey lies
through a valley of tears; and many to
whom that valley is only cheered by
transient glimpses of JOY.
Never, perhaps, was there a father,
who, after he had spent his days in
idleness, dissipation and luxury, did
not. when dying, admonish the chill
dren whom he loved, to hold more
honorable course, to follow the paths of
virtue, to fear God, and to fulfill prop
erly the duties of their station.
How often have the greatest abilities,
Which once drew esteem and admira-
ton, sunk, in short time, into most
humiliating degradation. merely
through the ascendant which corrupt
eel inclinations and low habits had ac-
CURED over the possessor. How often
have the rising honors CT the Young
been blasted by forsaking the path Of
honor on which they had once entered,
for the blind and crooked tracts of de-
pravity and folly.
Music and wine, in themselves
things of innocent nature; nav, when
temperately enjoyed, they may be en-
ployed for useful purposes; for afford
ing relaxation from the oppressive
cares of life, and for promoting friend
ly intercourse among men. It is the
criminal abuse of pleasure which is CEN
sured; that thoughtless and intemper-
ate enjoyment OF it which wholly abb
serbs the time and attention of men.
Lift up your view to that immense
arch in Heaven which encompasses YOU
above Behold the sun in all his
splendor rolling over your head bv
day, and the moon by night, in mild
and serene majesty, surrounded with
that host Of stars which present to
your imagination an innumerable multi
tude of worlds. Listen to the awful
voice Of thunder. Listen to the roar of
the tempest, and the ocean. Survey the
wonders that fill the earth which YOU
inhabit. Contemplate steady and
powerful hand bringing round spring
and summer, autumn and winter. in
regular course; decorating the earth
with innumerable beauties, diversifying
it with innumerable inhabitants, pour
ing forth comfort on all that live; and,
at the same time. over-awing the ma
tons with the violence of the elements,
when it pleases the Creator to let them
forth. After you have viewed yourself
surrounded with such scene OF wond-
ers; after you have beheld on every
hand such an astonishing display Of
majesty, united with wisdom and good
ness, are you seized with solemn and
serious awe? Is there not something
which whispers within you, that to this
great Creator reverence aud homage
are due by all the rational beings whom
ne has made. - Chicago Sunday Ma

THE UNITED LABOR PARTY

Hold a Lively County Convention in
New York.
New YORK, Jan. 6.-The United Labor
perty held its first county convention this
evening at Claredon Hall The basis upon
which the delegates were elected was one for
every two hundred votes cast for Henry
George in the last election. About $50 del
egates were present. Considerable interest
was manifested in the gathering as it was
understood there were some kickers among
the delegates and lively time was anticipat-
ed. Among the delegatrs were doctors,
lawyers, newspaper men and merchants.
John McMaken called the convention to Or
der and said that the delegates had been
selected without interference. It had been
given out that he had acted as a dictator, but
he would say that no one dared to make that
assertion to his face. This movement, he
said, was pure one was ever orgapitA2
and could defy the pulpit, the press and the
politicians. After lively skirmish in which
half a dozen candidates were named
John McMaken was chosen temporary
chairman and Frank J. Farrell vice chair
man. The selection of Temporary secretary
caused another lively time and half an hour
was lost on points of order. While the vote
for secretary was being called by districts
Mr.. McMakin moved that nominations
cease and that committees on organization
and resolutions be appointed. The con-
fusion increased. Nearly half the del
egates were on the floor at once.
Finally the resolution was lost and James
P. Archibal was elected temporary secretary.
The queation of appointing committee of
one from each district on contested seats was
the occasion for another wild scene. The
question was carried. After committees on
resolutions and organization had been select
ed the conuention adjourned until tomorrow
